About all those CarPlay runs on QNX stories...

There are some stories floating around about CarPlay being run by or powered by or something by QNX, BlackBerry's embedded operating system division. A better way to phrase it is that CarPlay "takes over the user experience" of in-vehicule infotainment systems running QNX. Here's the thing: Apple doesn't make or license embedded operating systems for smart cars just like they don't make or license embedded operating systems for smart TVs. They simply hook into what's already there, be it a Ferrari or a Panasonic, via CarPlay or Apple TV.

Ya a lot of really bad reporting on this on other sites, good that we're setting the record straight. Notice how Crackberry, the #1 site for Blackberry news did not publish this story. That's because their editors have enough sense to do 10 seconds of research The funny thing is, the original quote, taken in its original context, doesn't make or even allude to any of the claims being made in some of the articles that are quoting it.
